anyone know this feel? my phone is basically just for Google chrome from my bed
>90% of smartphone usage boils down to social media, email, videos and music
>people constantly demand faster devices and higher build quality

I don't know that feel.
I bought a Z3 because it has a great battery, great screen and build quality, and looks sexy.
It will be my phone until it breaks, I have no need to ever upgrade, the only thing I regret is not choosing the mint or copper instead.

Good, because it's a great language...
But bad because Swing is so shit I pretty much stopped making Java apps with a GUI
I love Java. My job is based around Java and I've learned a plethora of translatable skills from it.
The "java a shit" meme needs to die
>>51857403
It does seem like Java is used for more backend stuff, is there a way to write a GUI in another language?

Why aren't you programming in pure C89?
>>51857080
Because C++14 makes lots of things faster to implement at expense of minor performance losses.
>>51857080
But I do.
>>51857080
Advantage of doing so? Every relevant platform has a compiler that can compile a newer ISO standard of C.

How to prioritize learning something that's really in demand right now vs learning something that you really like but jobs are elsewhere?

Is mobile development a solid bet? I like android and when I get some money I'll buy a macbook to learn iOS as well.

Oh they were actually serious? Welp.
Mozilla are genuinely a joke company now. I loved Firefox back in the day, sucks to see what happened to them.

AVG's been pretty forceful with this new Zen thing. I've had it install silently twice now. Any idea what it's really for or am I just paranoid?
stop using one and use common sense more? windows defender is fine
AVG is absolute fucking garbage. Go with Avast or Avira (Avast is better in my experience).
Why do so many antivirus programs start with av?
>hes worried about zen thing instead of the fact that hes being sold by AVG as he reads this
My DVI Cable may have given up the ghost.
Sometimes, if left to sleep, the monitor would say "No Input Signal" and the only way to wake it would take the DVI Cable out of the monitor, then plug it back in.
Now the same thing happened, this time the old method hasn't helped. There's not even the "Device unplugged/plugged in" noise coming from the speakers, though it works for other devices like the mouse.
And turning the PC off and on again hasn't helped.
I could buy a new DVI cable and VGA backup after Uni (hence...

>But is there something else that could be causing this?
It's unlikely yo be your DVI cable. If it was, the image would be consistently fucked.
It's either your graphics card or your monitor. I'd start with trying to connect a different computer to that monitor.

Could dust be an issue?

I'm from Hong Kong, and most people here are currently using LG V10/G4 or iPhone 6S Plus (or 6 Plus). Chinese people are very materialistic and always want the latest and greatest as it's a symol of wealth/status symbol, so they "recycle phones" (resell and buy) every 6 months to get the latest flagship.
For the past 2 - 3 years, the market is split between Samsung or Apple. Now it's mostly iPhones and LG phones, but there's still many people using...

iPhone (normal people) or Samsung Galaxy S (Edgy people who think they're the greatest person who ever lived because they've got an extra TWO CORES over the iPhone)
Every other phone if you're a poorfag.

Samsung is popular but highly disliked as a company
Sony and HTC share the rest of the Android market with a few Huawei here and there
iPhone is popular but probably less then half of the smartphone market
UK here, there are quite a few around but Samsung and iPhone are most popular by far. I don't know if Samsung have set up something with the carriers here but they all seem to push Samsung phones over the iPhone whenever I go in the shop
